    anyhoo, getting back to leathers - u happen to know what the LE code is for?

      not yet you don't... ;)


      since u just checked, is this correct?

      LR: 'regular' lamb?
      LNB: some sort of blistered (combined with fabric)?

        ^yes, lr seems like a smooth mostly untreated one but my two lrs vary a bit.

        lnb is blistered leather over neoprene

              Does anyone know what LGI means?
              I´m thinking about buying a Stooges from a private seller and he says it´s calf, the tag reads RU13F07024-LGI.

                    The issue with earlier julius is the small sizing. I have a 4 that fits perfectly from 08, but it is near impossible to find earlier stuff that fits.

                      Cloth Works for Undead gasoline model? Anyhow old Julius (pre Thieves) always interested me but the sizing is wonky as all hell. I'm interested in what Nuke's quality was like, too.

                        Interesting. How do you find such pieces? I imagine searching "NUKE" or the related Japanese phrase wouldn't bring up much on Yahoo Auctions?

                            Julius, if you can find one. Sleeves are much shorter.

                              Hi Faust, If I was looking for a Julius to fit my 125lb 5.4ft frame which one do you think would look good & I do like RO as looking at a RU 14F2760 that I like but thinking the arm length and total length might make me look shorter, So my question is what tis the shortest RO or do you think Julius is the way to go since I'm only 5ft.4. Cheers Mark.

                                Julius rider jackets are great. RO jackets with ribbed cuff sleeves, so you can bunch them up. Otherwise, you'll need to find a good tailor to shorten the sleeve from the shoulder.
